Absolutely mint condition.  Bought it new last year.  Rarely been played.  Never left the house.
The San Dimas body has a beautiful bird's-eye maple top, with a thin clear lacquer and a specially contoured heel (sans neck plate) for easy access to the upper reaches of the fingerboard. The bolt-on neck is quartersawn flame maple with a "caramelized" heat and drying treatment that makes it sound and feel much older, with graphite reinforcement and a convenient truss rod adjustment wheel at the body end. Most unusually for a San Dimas model, the compound-radius (12"-16") flame-maple fingerboard spans two octaves, with the same caramelized treatment as the neck, 24 extra jumbo stainless steel frets and special maple dot inlays with ebony borders.Other premium features include three specially wound Charvel custom MFB pickups arranged in a versatile HSH configuration with five-way switching for the expansive tonal openness and dynamic sensitivity that Govan demands, two notched control knobs (master volume, master tone) with brass position markers set into the body, recessed original-style NOS Floyd Rose® tremolo bridge with Tremol-No™ unit and oversized brass block, bone nut, chrome hardware and 25.5" scale length.SpecificationsQuartersawn bolt–on "carmelized" flame-maple neck with two graphite rods for enhanced neck stabilityCompound–radius (12 –16 ) flame–maple fingerboard with 24 extra jumbo stainless steel fretsHSH pickup configuration featuring Charvel Custom MFB pickups for clear and transparent toneHStriking appointments such as special maple dot inlays with ebony bordersRecessed original–style NOS tremolo bridge with Tremol–NO™ system for rock–solid tuning stability
